Hi WRIGHT Kin, Here is some information I found in my files from other WRIGHT Family Researchers, and it mentions some names you may find of interest................... CARPE DIEM, Lori : ) in Arizona formally from Washington, PA. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: DIANEE Surnames: WRIGHT, JARRETT, HOWELL, GRIFFIN, MCCOMAS, GILBERT Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.wright/5869.4.1.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Yes, I just wish I had more info to share but this Reuben of mine has been a real challenge. Last year, I found a male desc of my Reuben Wright,(b 1779 VA)& this man agreed to a DNA test. We were a 12 for 12 marker match with a desc of Jarrett Wright (who married Tabitha Howell in 1791, Lunenburg Co. VA). This Jarrett moved to Wilkes Co GA & then died in 1820, Greene Co. GA. I also found some others of this particular Wright line in E. IL, around Madison Co. However, none of the Wright researchers of these areas include my Reuben in their data. "My" Jarrett Wright (don't know the connection yet)was a son of Wm Wright, b 1755, VA & Wm was a brother to another Jarrett Wright who married Eliz Griffin. I believe Job was this Jarrett's brother, isn't that correct? My line from Reuben & Anna (Gilbert) Wright, who married in 1798, Sussex Co. Va, moved to Greene Co. OH, with the Wrights from Brunswick Co. to set up the Methodist-Episcopal Church in Xenia. They then moved on to become early settlers in Henry Co. IN. Reuben & Anna/Joanna Wright were in the 1850 Wayne Co. IN census, both were 71 & I can't find a trace of them after that. My ancestor is their son, James Gilbert Wright who moved to Jasper Co. IL in about 1840 & was a circuit-rider minister in that part of IL until his death shortly after 1860. I have several of the names of James' siblings in Hancock Co. IN and lots of info on James' children (he marr Lucinda McComas in 1830 Rush Co. IN) but that's all I know about this family, after many years of researching them. If you know anything at all on my Reuben & w/Anna, please let me know. I have pictures of my James & Lucinda (McComas) Wright. Thanks. ____________________________________ From: gc-gateway@rootsweb.com To: WRIGHT-L@rootsweb.com Sent: 4/15/2008 11:57:58 P.M.

Tax Records list Nathan, John, William, and a Charles, Isaac, Jack, & Lewis Wright, all in the same area. I am not sure of the connections at this time except for Nathan, William & John. My William Wright was born 1748 but none of his 11 children, or Nathan's 13 children were named Jarrett. It has also been said there was a sister Sallie but so far I have not been able to locate any documentation on her. I will be happy to check Wilkes & Greene County Ga maybe something will turn up on Jarrett, will let you know if it does.
